Letters by a modern St. Ferdinand III about cults

Plenty of cults exist - every cult has its 'religious dogma', its idols, its 'prophets', its 'science', its 'proof' and its intolerant liturgy of demands. Cults everywhere: Islam, the State, the cult of Gay and Queer, Marxism, Darwin and Evolution, 'Science', Globaloneywarming, Changing Climate, Abortion....a nice variety for the human-hater, amoral, anti-rationalist to choose from. It is so much fun mocking them isn't it ?

No science necessary in this cult. Just add magic pixie dust.

by StFerdIII

Darwinism is about magic. The holy trinity of Darwin's cult namely, time, chance and mutations [which kill genomic information, see 'diseases' for more information]; somehow conspired to create a magic pixie dust which sprinkled itself on non-living dead matter, which then 'naturally selected' to become single-cells; who then magically combined to form multi-cells; which then grew into scum and algae; who then decided to naturally select and mutate into flat worms......a process that ended up in a T-Rex apparently.

And it only took 4.5 Billion years [or maybe it will be revised to Trillion].....this fiction and fantasy is what is now called rational science ! Don't be a denier. Accept your fate as an evolved bit of pond scum. If you question the cult of Darwin, you will be branded as a deluded, snivelling, irrational flat-earther. In reality there is precious little science and lots of cult dogma in Darwinism.

“Haldane’s Dilemma indicates that beneficial evolution is too slow to explain large-scale biological transformation in the available time, even given the claimed evolutionary timescale. It is named after J.B.S. Haldane (1892–1964), one of the world’s former leading evolutionists (and quite a hero to Dawkins—Greatest Show chapter 8 especially).”

And

“At one substitution every 300 generations, in this time frame, an ape-human-like lineage could substitute no more than about 1,700 beneficial mutations. Is this enough to explain the origin of all the unique human adaptations? Is it enough to explain the alleged tripling of brain size, upright posture, hand dexterity, speech, language, the distribution of hair, and the appreciation of music, to name a few?”

From an excellent scientific approach to Darwinism, in effect using the cult's arguments to reduce them to ad absurdem [reduction ad absurdem] found in: 'The Greatest Hoax on Earth'. The writers who have scientific Phds [appeal to authority!]' state the following:

Life from nothing?

“Darwin’s great admirer Ernst Haeckel agreed: “The chief defect of the Darwinian theory is that it throws no light on the origin of the primitive organism—probably a simple cell—from which all the others have descended. When Darwin assumes a special creative act for this first species, he is not consistent, and, I think, not quite sincere.”

“..origin of first life is a problem for materialists, since natural selection can’t explain it. Even the simplest living creatures are extremely complex, and this complexity largely involves informational ‘software’.

Adaptation is in your code – it is not evolution:

“...adaptations are not changes in the right direction to drive particles-to-people evolution...natural selection cannot create anything new; it only selects from what is available.”

“....natural selection as a conservative force, removing unfit organisms and ..as Stephen Jay Gould [evolutionist] pointed out, “Natural selection ranked as a standard item in biological discourse” among the pre-Darwinian creationists. William Paley’s famous Natural Theology had also recognized the role of natural selection, although not by that name.”

“...variation in populations arises from reshuffling of previously existing genes, not from mutations.”

Simple cell?

“...evolutionists have no explanations for the enormous changes needed to transform a single-celled organism into a multi-celled one, a pre-requisite for embryonic development in the first place.”

“..RNA is even more unstable than proteins and harder to produce, and even ribozymes (RNA-based enzymes) are poor enzymes compared to many protein enzymes that are essential for life.”

“..enough information capacity in a single human cell to store the Encyclopaedia Britannica, all 30 volumes of it, three or four times over.”

“protein machines are needed to read the DNA, but these protein machines are themselves encoded on the DNA. Furthermore, they use energy, which requires ATP, made by the nano-motor ATP synthase. Yet this is encoded on the DNA, decoded by machines needing ATP. The proteins are the machinery, and the DNA is the reproductive material, yet both are needed at the same time for the cell to function at all.”

Why sex ?

“Dawkins said scientists are also puzzling over ‘what sex is all about’—in evolutionary theory, that is. After all, sexual reproduction isn’t strictly necessary for the evolutionary process to do its thing.”

Mutations ?

"Humans accumulate 100–300 slightly harmful mutations every generation, and natural selection can’t remove them. This would have resulted in genetic meltdown after even hundreds of thousands of years. Supercomputer modelling of observed mutation rates and genetic load match the exponential decrease of human lifespans."

Why a complex brain ?

“...problem for evolution is that our brain seems far more complex than would be needed simply for survival. This was a problem for none other than Darwin’s co-discoverer Alfred Wallace, who believed that man’s higher capacities such as the human spirit, the mind, and the faculties of speech, art, music, mathematics, humour and morality were beyond the reach of natural and sexual selection: “Natural Selection could only have endowed the savage with a brain a little superior to that of an ape, whereas he actually possesses one but very little inferior to that of the average members of our learned societies.”

DNA is software code and code does not arrive by chance:

“...three billion DNA ‘letters’ stored in each human cell nucleus convey a great deal more information (known as ‘specified complexity’) than the half a million DNA ‘letters’ of the simplest self-reproducing organism.”

“...Molecular homologies also fail to support evolution. The genetic code is not universal, despite Dawkins’ claims.”

“origin of information is an insurmountable problem for bacteria-to-biologists evolution.”

"...human Y chromosome, owned by males, has been recently sequenced. The researchers noted the unexpected “extraordinary divergence” from the chimp Y chromosome, including “wholesale renovation”. Indeed, the researchers say: “Indeed, at 6 million years of separation, the difference in MSY gene content in chimpanzee and human is more comparable to the difference in autosomal gene content in chicken and human, at 310 million years of separation.” Substituting those changes would be a major problem for evolution.”

“Lyell [founder of Evolutionary-uniformitariainism, which states that all geological change was small and uniform, a theory which is completely at odds with reality] was biased and unscientific, driven by antibiblical philosophical assumptions, whereas the ‘catastrophists’ of his day (who believed in huge catastrophes although not necessarily in a young earth) were more empirically based followers of the scientific method (though most of them did not believe that the global Flood was responsible for most of the sedimentary rock layers...)"

“Carbon-14 has a short decay half-life, so should not be present in samples over a few hundreds of thousands of years. But it occurs in essentially every fossil that still contains carbon, including those that are in strata dated by other methods at tens to hundreds of millions of years. And it occurs in diamonds allegedly billions of years old.”

"...dinosaur bones have been discovered with red blood cells including hemoglobin, and blood vessels which are still elastic. Proteins like collagen and osteocalcin have also been found. Proven decay rates rule out their survival for many millions of years. But the long-age paradigm reigns, and now evolutionists either deny the findings or postulate unknown means of preservation.”

Earth's magnetic field is failing?

“Thomas Barnes noted that measurements since 1835 have shown that the main part of the earth’s magnetic field is decaying at 5% per century (also, archaeological measurements show that the field was 40% stronger in ad 1000 than today."

“One evolutionist admitted, “Magnetism is almost as much of a puzzle now as it was when William Gilbert (1544–1603) wrote his classic text Concerning Magnetism, Magnetic Bodies, and the Great Magnet, Earth in 1600!”

Darwinism is a classic cult fraud. No science. No observational evidence. A disregard for data and reality. A blind belief in blind magical processes which 'create' a complex 100 Trillion celled human, all from time, mutations which kill, and chance. Absurd. The only way this cult survives is through moronic rhetoric, tax money to fund its system of mis-education; and lurid, nonsensical propaganda. As with TV, evolution appeals to the brain-dead, the lowest common denominator in society, the lazy, the ignorant, the immoral and the narcissistic. It is a political program, not a scientific enterprise.
